What motherboard do you recommend for an AMD 3900X with OC?

On the Core i9 9900KF product specifications page on the Intel website, Intel lists this specific CPU as having SGX (software guard extensions) as a component of the CPU. This is in spite of the fact that the GPU portion of the CPU is disabled by default. If I were to purchase this CPU and have the SGX enabled in my BIOS, would I be able to play 4K UHD DVDs on my computer if I had the proper Bluray player and software?

I'm having trouble with my new GPU. it's a RTX 2070, the fan on the GPU starts spinning and 100% when there is no gaming load on and after about 40 seconds then the fans stop spinning and then it would start again, can you help?

Hi there.

I have Lenovo L340 Gaming Laptop with i7 9750h processor, GTX 1650 graphics, 16GB RAM and 500GB SSD NVMe. Everything is fine but i have a question. Whenever i am benchmarking my laptop or running a stress test, the clock speed goes above 4 and 4.2 GHz with all 6 cores active. However, when im running games, the clock speed is stuck at 2.6 GHz (which is the base clock of this CPU). Although there is no prob with the game running, but im wondering why the clock is fixed at 2.6 when gaming? it goes above 4GHz as soon as i close the game. The temp also is around 67 68 C not so high. Could you suggest whats causing this?? thnx

I have Lenovo M90 Desktop (not the tower type). Model: 3244B2G. Can I upgrade it with a Graphic Card? What type of card should I use?

Any help please. Thank you!

I'm looking for a good GPU for my Ryzen 5 2400G, my motherboard is a Biostar B45M2, which is kind of cheap, I also only have 8gbs of single channel 2400mhz RAM. I'm looking to upgrade to 16gbs of 3000mhz, dual channel memory, but I want a good graphics card to play Fortnite, Valorant, League of Legends competitively at 240+ FPS and stream and edit videos.

Hello,

Inland Professional SATA III SSD: For 480GB was installed 3wks ago by a PC repair shop here in San Diego on an old Toshiba that copied my hard drive a WD BLUE 500GB from another laptop and that Microsoft driver from 2006? This SSD is sooooo slow.....called them said it should be really fast.

Before I bring it back, any feedback as to why so slow?

Hi,

I purchased the NZXT Kraken X53 only that I didn't understand how the fans were supplied. Where should they be connected?

I am going to build a computer to handle the upcoming Microsoft Flight Sim 2020. Do you know of the best system specs and can you give any advice? Thank you!

Does the NVIDIA GeForce 1080 Ti GPU still hold up in graphic heavy games to play at 1440p at high refresh rates?

And, what would be a good modern CPU to pair with it to maximize its performance?
